The Rev. Al Sharpton kicked up a fuss outside the NY Post building today in protest of the monkey cartoon the paper ran yesterday.

In the past, a Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton-led protest meant corporations bent over backwards to give them what they wanted.

But a new day has dawned in America. A half black man occupies the White House for the first time in history (that we know of), which means no more white guilt.

No more accusing white folks of profiting from slavery or holding the black man down. The race is just about even now.

In the past, the national media took these protest marches seriously. But as I said, today is a new day:

There you have it! Hard to tell from the midday news tight shots, but it looks like they got at least a semi-respectable number of protesters out there, not that anyone at News Corp gives a fuck. Sharpton says if the Post doesn’t “take some action” against Delonas and his editors, he’ll lead a boycott of advertisers. To which Col Allan, we imagine, finished his Hot Pocket, licked his lips, turned to his editors, and said, “Fuck Al Sharpton.” [LINK]
